Planetary habitability and stellar activity

Contemporary Physics, 2018
The question about the possible existence of life outside of the Earth and its likely characteristics as based on the respective environmental circumstances has been asked for hundreds of years.

Planetary Habitability in Binary Systems

Advances in Planetary Science, 2018
Astrophysical research has led to the detection of thousands of planets outside the Solar System. About one-tenth of the extrasolar planets discovered so far reside in binary- or multi-stellar systems, and some of the closest known rocky exoplanets populate these multiple-star systems. While such environments seem good places to look for a second Earth,

Factors of Planetary Habitability

, 2013
This chapter discusses factors necessary for life originating and developing on a planet somewhere else in the universe than on Earth. Of course, I am not the first to do this: ever since people became interested in the origin of life, ideas have been put forward, though generally only a few, often independent, factors are taken into account.

Review on the Role of Planetary Factors on Habitability

Origins of Life and Evolution of Biospheres, 2016
In this work various factors on the habitability were considered, focusing on conditions irrespective of the central star's radiation, to see the role of specific planetary body related effects. These so called planetary factors were evaluated to identify those trans-domain issues where important information is missing but good chance exit to be filled

Pioneering Concepts of Planetary Habitability

, 2013
Famous astronomers such as Richard A. Proctor (1837–1888), Jules Janssen (1824–1907), and Camille Flammarion (1842–1925) studied the concept of planetary habitability a century before this concept was updated in the context of the recent discoveries of exoplanets and the development of planetary exploration in the solar system.

Maunder’s Work on Planetary Habitability in 1913: Early Use of the term “Habitable Zone” and a “Drake Equation” Calculation

Research Notes of the AAS, 2020
E. W. Maunder’s popular book “Are the Planets Inhabited?” has a strikingly modern perspective on the question, and may be the first use in this context of the phrase “habitable zone.”

Dynamic Habitability Of Extrasolar Planetary Systems

Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy, 2005
In this paper, we estimate the likelihood to find habitable Earth-like planets on stable orbits for the extrasolar planetary systems ee Eridani, 55 Cancri, 47 Ursae Majoris, and ρ Coronae Borealis and provide a new tool to assess habitability of extrasolar planetary systems.

Plasma for Crewed Transit and Planetary Habitation

2021 IEEE International Conference on Plasma Science (ICOPS), 2021
As human exploration moves beyond low Earth orbit, innovative life support and resource production systems become forerunners for human colonization. Plasma systems allow for complex chemical processes while mitigating consumable needs. Plasma technology and applications can redefine the space environment.
